Thought I would start off a thread, bit of friendly banter not too heavy and an opportunity to express your ideas about your favourite team.

What are you hoping for in the January transfer market?

As a Liverpool fan I am hoping for cover for Mane and the front 3.

I won't be much good on this topic. My home club is currently languishing around the bottom of League One

The once proud Coventry City destroyed by the greed of businessmen.....

Anyway I will try not to be so despondent....

I used to like Coventry coming to Anfield, the crowd they brought was always a good one and made a lot of noise. Shame they have not made it back to the top flight again, well yet

When Coventry played at Highfield Road we always had a brilliant match experience. Jimmy Hill as manager took us to the top.....All went pear shaped soon after they moved to the Ricoh arena...

They won't ever with the inbred hedge fund scum currently (not)running it.
I swear, a 12 year old with 2 years fifa manager experience could do no worse

Nope, it was when the Bryan Richardson era shareholders decided to pocket most often sale money from £25m of transfers then sold up to the first offer from the inbred SISU conglomerate of especially mongified clowns.

The Ricoh arena could have been an easy cash cow, but some board members were looking at cashing short term chips in

I wasn't going to mention the SISU word!!

Re: Football Talk

viridis — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 19:39:46 GMT

Sorry, SISU went bankrupt... Funnily enough, the same day their directors started a new business called Otium, who then bought same bankrupt club.
Excellent way of skullfudging your assets dry

Well Coventry City would be delighted to see the furore they caused on this new thread. They have become important again

Sadly they will be looking for another venue again as they can't afford to pay the rent for the Ricoh

Love it, there seems to be passion for "The Sky Blues" would like to see them at least in the championship. Wouldn't look forward to seeing this kit again though
